This exhibition, on the second and third floors of the Artsonje Center, investigates not only the ways in which the North is viewed from outside, but examines the relevant relationships that exist between the South and the North. It suggests ways in which we might rethink our relationship with North Korea, a place that is virtually impossible to visit, and which sometimes feels like an entirely foreign country, though it nevertheless remains an inextricably linked aspect of Korea’s national identity.
